May Erlewine – Whole Again Lyrics
Artist: May Erlewine
Song: Whole Again
They pulled my grandmother’s roses
Right out of the ground
85 years
She spent puttin those roots down
She said “it’s to be expected
It’s the way it’s always been
We take what we are given
And we make it whole again”
Make it whole again
Like only we can
Make it whole again
With our holy hands
We’ve been ripped apart so many times
Still here we stand
And every day you come asking
“Make it whole again”
They took my grandmothers paintings
Burned them then and there
Said she had the devils touch
And healed her with a prayer
She said “it’s to be expected
How could they understand?
You cannot see an ocean
With your head down in the sand”
I paint it all again
With my holy hands
We’ll make it whole again
Like only we can
We’ve been ripped apart so many times
Still here we stand
And every day you come asking
“Make it whole again ”
They took every ounce of truth we had
And fed it to the fire
Took our pain like Novocaine
And wrote us off as liars
It burned into our history
A legacy of shame
Took every ounce of beauty
And never learned our names
What if we could fix it
What if there’s no time
What if we resisted
Called the lie a lie
What if there’s no savior
There never was a choice
Do you hear the pleading prayers
Shaking in our voice
Screaming from the heavens
To this earthly place I stand
Drowning in the wreckage
I don’t know if we can
Make it whole again x8
